WFSB

West Hartford, CT – Kickstart your wellness journey with free health screenings offered this Saturday at the vibrant West Hartford Farmers Market! The West Hartford and Bloomfield Health District is setting up a booth to provide valuable, no-cost health checks, making preventative care accessible to everyone in the community.

Why Get Screened?

Taking proactive steps towards your health is crucial, and these screenings are a fantastic starting point. The Health District team will be conducting free blood pressure and heart-rate tests – two vital indicators of overall health. High blood pressure and irregular heart rates can be silent warning signs of underlying health issues, and early detection is key to effective management and prevention.

More Than Just Numbers

While the screenings provide immediate data on your blood pressure and heart rate, the Health District staff will also be available to discuss the results with you. They can offer personalized advice, answer your questions, and guide you toward further resources if needed. This is a unique opportunity to gain insights into your cardiovascular health and learn practical tips for maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Convenience and Community

The Farmers Market location makes these screenings incredibly convenient. Combine your weekly grocery shopping with a quick and easy health check! It’s a wonderful way to support local farmers and prioritize your well-being simultaneously. The Health District's presence at the market underscores their commitment to bringing health services directly to the community where people live and shop.
